Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s marriage continues to mystify the public. The couple privately tied the knot in December 2022 and were spotted publicly in January 2023. The couple will be celebrating their second wedding anniversary soon. However, insiders suggest they took a break from their marriage. And their gloomy Tokyo dinner in November 2024 suggests this might be true.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori looked unhappy during a dinner date amid reports of a marriage break

Kanye West and Bianca Censori keep details of their marriage private. The couple seemingly got together before West and Kim Kardashian finalized their divorce in November 2022. Censori has worked for West as an architectural designer for Yeezy since November 2020.

Divorce rumors swirled around the couple starting in October 2024. West and Censori didn’t confirm or deny the rumors. However, they seemed to prove they were still a pair while traveling together in Tokyo. Unfortunately, their grim dinner date on Nov. 19, 2024, showed a potential drift.

Photos of the couple at dinner show Censori focused on her phone as she and West sat across from each other in a restaurant. Censori was covered in a pink fur coat — a severe departure from her typical nearly nude looks. West wore a black hoodie. They both had their heads propped in their hands with their elbows leaning on the table and didn’t appear to speak to each other.

The photos came after another report that suggested Censori and West are taking a break from their marriage. Censori’s family allegedly disapproves of West, and West hopes to focus on his music.

“Her family has never been a fan of Ye, and those close to her have questioned whether marrying him was the right decision,” a source told The U.S. Sun in November 2024. “Kanye said they’ve been taking a breather since mid-October, and his only focus right now is the music. He’s really keen to get this new record out with Ty Dollar $ign.”

Their marriage is strained over Kanye West’s ‘high expectations,’ a source says

Kanye West and Bianca Censori don’t publicly discuss the alleged issues in their marriage. However, an insider told Page Six that their strain comes from West’s “high expectations.”

“They have had many disagreements over Kanye having high expectations for her and the marriage,” the source alleged. “Bianca knew what she was getting herself into when marrying Kanye, but, as months went on, the lifestyle took a toll on her.”

Censori allegedly wants to spend more time in Los Angeles and travel less, as their jet-setting lifestyle is causing problems. The insider added that she voiced her concerns to West, but it didn’t go well. Regardless, they hoped to work through their issues and stay together.

“There are no plans for divorce at this time,” the source alleged.

Why is the rapper in Tokyo?

Kanye West and Bianca Censori haven’t discussed how long they plan on staying in Tokyo. However, it seems Censori may leave before West. Music journalist Touré said West is living in the Japanese city to work on his album, Bully, according to DailyMail.com.

“When he’s in Japan, people see him, but they’re very quiet,” an insider noted. “They’re very respectful. Very seldom will they even come up and ask for a picture. So he can move around Japan with no security.”

A friend of West’s noted that the rapper has a “different level of peace of mind” while in Japan, allowing for his creativity to flow. “Because your mind is at ease. Your mind is at rest. You’re not paranoid about anything,” they said.
